None of these can boast a win yet and the vote goes to CAPTAIN BELLAMY on account of his recent second over 1m4f here. He was still beaten five lengths but had today's rival Trojan Touch well behind and may be capable of better. Mayan Flight had Market Maker and Goodmanyourself behind when third at Beverley last week and can figure, while there appeared to be something amiss with Subramaniam last time as he'd shown improved form when placed at Nottingham before that.
